Les Renardes Corton Grand Cru Pinot Noir

Red fruit, decent, not exciting.

Dried berries a bit dull but great fruit.

Splendid iron ore

If the quality of this bottle is any indication this estate is very close to its former renowned reputation--a triumph!

Really good. Blue fruited and firm. Excellent choice for beef. Double decanted.

Stunner. In a nearly perfect spot right now.

From a half bottle. Sour black cherries, black currant, but mostly dusty and a face full of Christmas spices. The 2006 was much more developed and ready. Despite coming from a half bottle, the 2005 will need at least 5-10 more years.

Gorgeous

2006!

Beautiful earthiness on this wine with lots of sweet young fruit.
